RoC Revive + Glow Eye Balm
Article content
They say: A buzzy eye balm that’s caught the interest of social media beauty fans, this formula from RoC features Vitamin C and peptides to reduce under-eye puffiness and the appearance of dark circles.

We say: This balm is worth the hype. The twist-up stick formula is easy to apply; simply smooth onto skin and that’s it. Our tester found it provided a punch of smoothing hydration when applied both in the morning and as a midday pick-me-up for the under-eye area. It also played well with makeup, allowing concealer to glide and blend easily overtop without pilling.
